Abstract

A multiplexed emitter source distributor electrode, a related multiplexed electrospray nozzle, a related multiplexed electrospray apparatus and a related coating method that uses the multiplexed electrospray apparatus are all predicated upon at least one of: (1) a linear emitter source density greater than about 15 emitter sources per centimeter; and (2) an area emitter source density greater than about 225 emitter sources per square centimeter. The distributor electrode comprises other than a silicon material (i.e., a metal, metal alloy, ceramic or polymer material). The distributor electrode may be fabricated using a computerized numerical control method that provides the coating method with enhanced uniformity. The nozzle and the apparatus may also use a stepped slotted extractor electrode.
